Ted Cruz dominated in Colorado of that there is no debate. Ted did it by playing inside politics (establishment politics). This is one of Donald Trumps main criticisms of how Washington works.
The Colorado delegate selection process was set up that way. It's their party and they are fully in powered to make the rules as they see fit. There was no cheating, rule breaking or any of that. They made the rules and everyone was told the rules including Trump.
So why did Trump not even try in Colorado? Trump at best would have only gathered a hand full of Colorado delegates. In order to gain this small number delegates Trump would have had to practice (establishment politics).
A practice his supporters will not tolerate. So Trump stayed true to his word on establishment politics and took the loss. Thus avoiding the criticisms he would have been plaster with such as hypocrite and may others from the media. It also allows Trump to criticize the selection process in Colorado as undemocratic, unfair, establishment politics ect. This position will likely sway more delegates his way in coming primary's. Far out weighting the hand full he lost in Colorado.
